In the Street Bandit class, it was an open-comp clash of Renegade and Hot Street. It could've been run in a heads-up format since the EFI Renegade record is an 8.38 and Hot Street record clocks in at an 8.40. However, it didn't matter in the final between Don Bowles and Alton Clements. Hot Street racer Don Bowles doesn't have the luxury of boost, but what he does have is Roush Competition Engines powering the wickedest Maverick on the planet. Both Alton and Don were off the Bradenton pace, but Don was off by the larger margin and Alton emerged victorious
